FROM SPLASH PAGE: Okay, "Watchmen" fans -- mark your calendars for January 20, because it looks like that's "D-Day" for the final decision on whether the film will be released on its original premiere date of March 6.

The L.A. Times is reporting today that lawyers for 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros. have come to an agreement to allow U.S. District Judge Gary A. Feess to decide if Warner Bros. should be allowed to release "Watchmen" this spring as planned, therefore eschewing a potentially lengthy jury trial that would most likely cause the film to be delayed even further.
